3. Breeding Ecology: Ph.D. position, based at the University of Maine (starts Fall 2010). The successful
candidate will model latitudinal trends in seasonal fecundity for a suite of tidal marsh species and compare changes
in nesting ecology with historical data. Additional duties will include managing a field site over three summers
(2011-2013, including supervising a crew of technicians) at study sites in southern Maine and assisting in the
database management for a web portal that will serve as a central clearinghouse for all collaborators. Successful
applicants will have a firm foundation in statistics (demographic modeling experience preferred), mist-netting and
nest searching experience, a perverse desire to stand out in the mud and make friends with parasitic insects, and the
ability to work well with diverse folks that are (only slightly) unhinged. An MS in a related field is preferred. Send
applications to: Brian Olsen, University of Maine.
